Best 245/75 R16 truck tires
I have had 2 sets of Michelin Tires on my Dodge 2500 Pickup. The first set from factory, the sidewalls rotted away with major cracks. Only 17000 on the clock. Always in the Garage, no tire dressing. ...

15-20 year old truck, not sure how many years you expected to get out of tires. Yes michilubes seem to dry rot more/quicker than some, but in your case I wouldn't look for the best tires, I'd look for the cheapest tires if they're going to rot out before they wear out.
On a budget, check Craigslist or as Amazon. May find some takeoffs on CL but 16s have gone by the wayside, about 15 years ago.
Another option is buy a new set of takeoff 17/18/20s (they'll all fit under a 2nd gen 4x4, if you have 2wd stay with 265-70-17 as the biggest). There are piles of new Ram takeoff wheels and tires for less than $1000 around here. Plus you get the advantage of ditching the old 16s.
If buying just tires, you can find a bunch on Amazon LT245 or 265 for $100-150 a piece shipped.
